Some_Random_Guy 4 Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) What does this number next to this players name mean? Names are blurred out because it's not my photo and I don't know the rules regarding posting random peoples pans.

Some_Random_Guy 4 Posted August 30, 2019 Well it's gotta mean something otherwise it wouldn't be happening. As for the hiding of the names this picture was posted in another community I'm in and people have been reporting the guy for duping without any actual evidence. I'm not trying to contribute to that, just curious what the number means as I've been noticing it more and more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MaVerick_GDZ 148 Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) That usually means that the name is already in use and the 2nd or 3rd player connecting with the same name gets a 2 or 3 at the end. It can also happen when someone is lagging out and is trying to reconnect too fast. Edited August 30, 2019 by MaVerick_GDZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Some_Random_Guy 4 Posted September 5, 2019 Was really hoping a Dev or someone from Bohemia could confirm as it's starting to happen on my private server and I want to know if should be actively getting rid of those players. Don't really want to start getting rid of players without hard evidence. @ImpulZ any chance you can confirm this likely duping or just some internal connection thing going on?

HowsMyShot 20 Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) just to clarify, sometimes bluescreen/crash when players rejoin could cause (2) besides their nickname as well, This happens when the original character is stuck on the server due to heavy lag on the server itself, I have more than 20 ticket opened with Nitrado and they point finger to Manufacturer "Dayz" application itself could not handle and end up in crash which result the server crash every 2 hours and I don't have any firm answers You can see in the video that the player lagged and stuck, This happens almost every hour on my server which result the server either shutdown or restart by itself We document timestamp of every events of server crash and sent to Nitrado, Best part! No help, Pointing fingers to our Manufacturer @ImpulZ FYI Edited September 5, 2019 by Siva Saravanan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BodycountAU 14 Posted September 6, 2019 Saw somebody with the number 12 next to name, so don't think that would be a crash lol, forced closed maybe, possibly a duper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
